I love how much you respect your husband and you make every decision together, such as hanging a pantry curtain or not. Everything in your house has to function well for both of you, and I love that.
I’d love to see recipes with ground beef or like stew beef. We always have freezer beef but it sits sometimes because I forget to thaw it, or it doesn’t sound too. We also have lentils, instant mashed potatoes, and noodles I need to get better about using
You made my day when I saw that you are back on TH-cam!!! I so worried about you and Ben., so now I am much relieved that all is well. I have so much admiration for you both as you are both so hard working. Your farmhouse is amazing and I absolutely love your kitchen. Can’t wait for the pantry reveal. I think of the original couple that built your home 100 years ago , and how over joyed they must be in heaven to know that their dream home is coming back to life once again .
Sorry to worry you! We are good just needed a break from YT for a bit. Thank you so much! I am working on finishing up a few things in the pantry but a full pantry reveal will be coming soon! I hope so! I think about who they are and what they would think of the work we are doing so often.
Every time you're in the kitchen with that amazing antique golden cabinet, I'm so impressed on how well it fit in that corner and how good it looks and functions. What a wonderful piece, love it. I'm vegetarian and don't really do that much cooking, never really been something that interests me and I live alone. If I were to make something, it would be a large pot or pan, something that would last for days and only need reheating. For the amount of dairy you purchased, the price doesn't seem that high. Dairy is expensive, the highest items after meats. Oh my! Look at the glimpse of that amazing panty. Love the color and bead board. Yes, please a video of the finished pantry and tour of how you have it organized. Won't be able to give our opinion of a curtain vs door till we see the room video.
I know! I still cannot believe it fit so well. I feel like it was made for our kitchen. Yes dairy is so expensive! A full video on the pantry will be coming soon! I am working on finishing up some small things in there and then will be filming the tour.
To save money we have a lot of meals that have a little meat. Tonight we had beef and broccoli stir fry and I only used one small sirloin steak. We eat a lot of Mexican food and I cook ground beef half and half with lentils of pinto beans.
The new pantry is gooorgeous! I may have missed this but are you planning on removing the old pantry (the one that takes up a corner of your kitchen) to free up some room? I’ve loved following all your projects! ❤
Thank you! We sort of took it out. We took out all the shelving but now it is the opening to this pantry if that makes sense. I’ll share it when I share the full pantry tour.
Gotcha, I guess I meant removing the opening/little corner structure, but any way you have it I’m sure looks awesome! Can’t wait for the tour and love these grocery hauls too!! 🥰
Groceries are so high. We do raise beef which really helps. I’m not a big meat eating but my husband is. We shop at Kroger too. I love the digital coupons and sometimes they have a freebie. I’m just loving your pantry!
I’ve been following your journey for a while but am usually a silent viewer but I love how the house is coming along. You guys are doing great! Also really enjoy a good grocery haul so feel free to keep sharing them. I remember you mentioned in several video you’re from Kentucky and I was lucky to make a trip last February with my mom to the Lexington/Richmond/Berea area and it’s beautiful. We have family ancestry from the Berea and Somerset areas and it was interesting to learn about the history. Hoping once I get done with school to move to the area even if it’s just for a couple years to explore more of it. Thanks for sharing! Hope you guys have a great weekend.
Thank you so much! Kentucky is beautiful. I’m partial to it so of course I don’t think there is any better state. That is so exciting you definitely should! Thank you so much for watching and following along with us!
I guess I'm not the only one running low on potatoes and canned tomatoes. I had no idea how many tomatoes I used---I thought I did enough, but now they're gone. As for potatoes, I have another 2 weeks left. I dread the grocery store ones---they are so tasteless in comparison to home grown. I really love your kitchen (and pantry too--based on what little I saw of it). Looking forward to a full tour of that.
I had to laugh when you said you buy cheese at the grocery because you get most of your grains and things at the Amish store. I just got a big cheese haul at the Amish store!!! We really love those Walnut Creek brand cheeses . I got out yesterday and today both but another cold wave is hitting by Sunday so I stocked up.
That's awesome! Our Amish stores used to sell it but they couldn’t keep it cold enough so it kept molding. They quit carrying it since they didn’t have a good way to store it.
Dairy products breaks the bank every time I go shopping. We go to Sam's club to get our butter and heavy whipping cream because we need those the most. Cheese, I buy in bulk at my cousin small business store or the Amish store because that's the cheapest i can find it and since it's in bulk, I will divide it up by the pound and freeze it. You should look into buying your OJ in concentrate, in the freezer section. It's just simply OJ. The juice in those jugs have nasty chemicals and cost more. Just a friendly tip. We buy our milk from a friend. She has Jersey cows, sells it 5.00 a gallon. For what we spend on dairy products, we are really considering getting a Jersey cow. We just need to get our barn and pastures ready for cows. As a family of 5, I have managed to cook up one of our whole chickens and turn that into 3-4 meals. I try to do that with all the meat that I take out of thw freezer. Stretching out meals is what I do best. 😂😂😂😂 living off 1 income, we need to do whatever we can to save money.
Yes they do! They are so expensive but it’s one of our biggest expenses. Really?! I did not know that. From what little I know about orange juice I always assumed concentrate was not good. When we buy organic orange juice in the jug we always make sure it says not from concentrate. I definitely need to look into this more now! That is an amazing price for fresh milk! The cheapest we have ever found it is $10 a gallon.
@LewisAcresHomestead some concentrated juices do have added sugars. But the OJ concentrate that I get is just simply OJ with the water taken out. That's why it's thick like syrup. Always important for us to just read the ingredients. I think people charging that much for a gallon of milk are simply greedy. 10.00!!!??? That's insane. We have a local farm that sells milk and dairy products in a small store right there on their farm. We literally just walk in, get what we need, put our names and what we got on a daily form, and pay with cash. They only charge 4.00 a gallon. It's a 20 minute drive for me, so we just get it from my friend that just lives a few miles away. Plus her jersey cows make way better milk anyways. We drink and use so much of it. No way we could afford 10.00 a gallon. Lol.
I miss those chicken sausages you bought. I used to love them but they stopped selling them and when I asked after not seeing them for months they had no idea what I was talking about. Sigh. It’s been years since I had them now.
@ I’m in Canada and it was Walmart that originally had them. Until they didn’t. They have that brand in another store but they don’t sell the sausages.
I love how much you respect your husband and you make every decision together, such as hanging a pantry curtain or not. Everything in your house has to function well for both of you, and I love that.
We are so grateful to have each other and want what works best for both of us! ❤️

Hi Sarah. Ouuuuuu love your pantry, I am so excited for you having this new space🌷🇨🇦
Thank you so much! I can't wait to show you a full tour of it soon!
Love you being back!
It’s so good to be back!
Very excited to see the pantry tour👌
I’m trying to finish up a few things in there and hopefully will be able to post it in the next few weeks.
I guess I'm not the only one running low on potatoes and canned tomatoes. I had no idea how many tomatoes I used---I thought I did enough, but now they're gone. As for potatoes, I have another 2 weeks left. I dread the grocery store ones---they are so tasteless in comparison to home grown.
I really love your kitchen (and pantry too--based on what little I saw of it). Looking forward to a full tour of that.
Yes, those are definitely two staples in our house! Hopefully I can finish up a few things and get it up in the next few weeks.
I love your pantry and can’t wait for that video ❤
Thank you so much! I can't wait to show you a full tour of it soon!
That pantry is looking SO GOOD❤️❤️❤️ & I'm glad you added the amount spent! I am always curious as to what ppl spend& what it gets them!
Thank you so much!!! I'm happy to share our grocery spending and how it breaks down.
Whoa your pantry is gorgeous!
Thank you so much!
Hmm what a good question! Lol. I feel like we always have pasta of some sort in the pantry
Yes! I forgot about pasta! We always have it on hand also.
Think you so much. I appreciate all your comings and goings, sharing with us everything that will help us with inflation. Thanks....e ❤❤❤

I miss those chicken sausages you bought. I used to love them but they stopped selling them and when I asked after not seeing them for months they had no idea what I was talking about. Sigh. It’s been years since I had them now.
I hate you can’t find them. They are my favorite! Our Walmart doesn’t have them but I can usually always find them at Kroger.
@ I’m in Canada and it was Walmart that originally had them. Until they didn’t. They have that brand in another store but they don’t sell the sausages.
That pantry is gorgeous
Thank you!
Your pantry is gorgeous!
